The ideal candidate will possess a deep technical understanding of Hoisting solutions and a first-time-right approach to design. Since these products operate in hazardous environments, your work will be critical to ensuring both operational efficiency and human safety. Key Responsibilities Design & CAD Modelling: Develop 3D CAD models and detailed 2D production drawings for customised wire rope hoists, chain hoists, and crane components using Siemens NX. Technical Documentation: Generate comprehensive Bills of Materials (BOMs), assembly instructions, and technical specifications for manufacturing in the production drawings. Data Management: Maintain design integrity, revisions, and workflows within the Teamcenter PLM environment. Work Management : Utilize SAP for daily Work Management and project tracking. Execute assigned tasks according to the Task Allocation schedule within the SAP Ex-proof Integration: Incorporate explosion-proof design principles (flameproof enclosures, non-sparking materials) into modularised hoist architectures. Collaboration: Work closely with the Order Management and Product Platform teams to resolve bottlenecks and ensure designs are optimized for fabrication. Awareness of ISO 14001 and 45001 standards Qualifications Required Skills Must-Have Technical Skills: Software Proficiency: Expert-level command of Siemens NX (CAD) and Teamcenter (PLM) is mandatory. SAP user knowledge will be an added advantage Product Knowledge: Solid grasp of the mechanical architecture of Electric Wire Rope Hoists (including drum design, gearboxes, and rope reeving systems). Preferred Expertise (Added Advantage): Hazardous Areas: Knowledge of Ex-proof (ATEX/IECEx) protection methods, such as d (flameproof) or e (increased safety). Material Science: Understanding of spark-resistant materials (bronze, stainless steel) and specialized coatings used in volatile environments. Standards Knowledge: Familiarity with crane component standards (e.g., FEM, ISO, or CMAA) and manufacturing tolerances. Core Competencies: Attention to Detail: Precision is paramount; you must be able to spot errors in complex assemblies before they reach the shop floor. Communication: Strong verbal and written skills to coordinate effectively with the Order Management and Product platform teams. Professional Experience & Education Experience: 2–5 years of core design experience in the Lifting Equipment, Material Handling, or Heavy Engineering industry. Primary Education: Bachelor's Degree (B.E. / B.Tech) in Mechanical Engineering/ Production Engineering or a closely related field. Preferred Background: Candidates who have previously worked with manufacturers of EOT cranes, wire rope hoists, or specialized winches will be given preference.
